Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Mohur - Jahangir (Aries - Urdu) 1036 (1627) coin from the Mughal Empire (India) is that it features a unique blend of Islamic and Hindu astrological symbols. The coin's obverse side bears the inscription "Jahangir" in Urdu, while the reverse side features the Aries symbol, which is associated with the Hindu astrological sign of Mesha. This blending of religious and cultural symbols reflects the diverse and syncretic nature of the Mughal Empire, which was known for its tolerance and acceptance of different faiths and traditions.
